Island
Welcome
TO PARARĒKAU - LUXURIOUS ISLAND LIVING OFF THE COAST OF KARAKA.
Nestled in the calm waters of the Manukau Harbour, just off the coast of Karaka, Pararēkau Island is truly a unique location and an offering that Auckland has yet to see.
Standing on the island, feeling the harbour breeze, It’s hard to believe you’re just 3 minutes’ drive to the motorway, and 33 kilometres from Auckland’s CBD.
Signature Homes is proud to be one of the preferred builders chosen to be part of the exclusive Pararēkau Island development off the coast of Karaka, Auckland.
We have a series of sections available as part of our custom Design & Build service, where together we will develop an architecturally designed home to suit your lifestyle.
Our custom Design & Build service comes with our personal guarantee of developing a design that’s right for you; at an upfront agreed fixed design fee.

New Home Consultants
Our New Home Consultants (NHCs) ask a lot of questions because their job is to find the perfect build package for you, at the right price for your budget. Ask them questions too, our NHCs will always find you an answer and they are with you every step of the way.
Design Team
Our experienced architects, designers and estimators turn your dream into conceptual drawings and 3D images. They’ll show you a range of plans from our collections that could work on your site or if you’re after something a little different, talk you through the process of designing your new home from scratch.
Colour Consultants & Interior Designers
Don’t worry if you don’t have an eye for interior design – when you build with us you have access to your own design team, including a colour consultant who will help guide you through these key decisions.
Building Project Managers
Once your build is locked down and signed off, your Building Project Manager (BPM) will manage the tradespeople on your site and all the requirements for the remainder of your build, keeping it on time and on budget, right up until you move in.
Quality Materials
When considering building a new home, it’s important to align with a building partner who cares about the quality of your home as much as you do.
Signature Homes built its reputation on creating beautiful, architecturally designed homes across New Zealand. Since our inception in 1983, we have been committed to maintaining our position as New Zealand’s premier home builders, working with our long-standing suppliers and subcontractors. Each supplier has been carefully selected for their commitment to quality, attention to detail, and innovation.
Today we work with thirty of New Zealand’s largest suppliers to ensure the best pricing and consistent supply of materials. These relationships enable us to deliver your home on time and within budget.
Once construction commences, we have robust systems to cross-check all work, ensuring it meets the highest industry standards. Our Quality Management tool is unique to Signature Homes, and it covers more than 300 checkpoints, from the initial earthworks to maintenance procedures performed after our clients move in. Our processes ensure that quality is upheld at every step. In addition, our clients have a dedicated Project Manager, so they can rest easily knowing their build is in capable hands. Your Project Manager is always available - providing responsive, friendly and courteous service every step of the way.

Total Price Guarantee
At Signature Homes, we guarantee that the price we give you when you sign your Building Agreement is the same price you will pay for your new home, excluding any authorised variations. No nasty budget blow-outs, no surprise costs and no scary extra fees.
